Yes, and a bit of the original report I should have quoted is:

version targeted for testing:
 linux                ea5dd38e93b3bec3427e5d3eef000bbf5d637e76
baseline version:
 linux                d048c068d00da7d4cfa5ea7651933b99026958cf

As far as I know. But: older linux-X.Y doesn't support PVH, so this test
has always failed at guest-start in those flights, before we would have
gotten to this failure.

The only newer stable branch which we test is linux-4.1, flight 59054
from didn't show this issue, but the next one might pick up something
newer, or 4.1.(y+1) might still be in the pipeline upstream and  the
issue will show up later.

We also test linux-linus and linux-next, so far neither of them seems to
exhibit this problem:
http://logs.test-lab.xenproject.org/osstest/results/history/test-amd64-amd64-xl-pvh-intel/linux-linus.html
http://logs.test-lab.xenproject.org/osstest/results/history/test-amd64-amd64-xl-pvh-intel/linux-next.html

Which is interesting in itself I suppose.

Bisection was broken for linux-3.18 until this morning, Ian fixed the
config and it should pick up on this failure and start investigating
once the next flight completes (tonight some time).

Ian.
